SEVEN CLIMATE CHANGE RECORDS BROKEN IN 2016

2016 is well on its way to being the warmest year on record, so it’s no surprise that multiple climate change records have already been broken this year.Thankfully, the entry into force of the Paris Agreement (which, by the way, set a record for most countries signing an international agreement in a single day on April 22) signals an enormous victory in our continued fight for a bright, sustainable future for our planet. But before we bust out the champagne we should take stock of the climate change records that were broken this year – so far. Here are seven. Let’s hope we don’t have many more to report come year’s-end.
